The lifespan of equipment and its operational safety depend directly on regular maintenance performed by qualified personnel. The more detailed the maintenance plan, the longer the machine will operate without failure, delivering maximum economic benefits.


Initial maintenance includes the following stages:

Hydro Accumulator: Check the nitrogen pressure. During the first week of operation, if the pressure drops by more than 5 bar, the machine must be stopped and the system’s tightness inspected. Pressure monitoring in the hydro accumulator should follow a scheduled plan: the first check one week after start-up, the second after one month of continuous operation, and every three months thereafter.
Hydraulic Oil: After the first 500 hours of operation, changing the oil is mandatory. Subsequently, its condition should be checked annually. If the oil no longer meets standards, it must be filtered or replaced.

Suction filter: After the first 500 hours of operation, it is essential to clean the filter. Thereafter, cleaning should be carried out every six months.
